 That we may emphasize and clearly explain ihe relation tle kidneys sustain to tha gcnarai haa'yt, and how much is dependent upon them, we propose, met apboria 'ly spcaking, to take one from the htmin body, plaae in the wash bow h fore Ns. ana examine it for the public benefit
 You will imagine tnat we have before us body shaped llEc a bean, smooth and giistening. alolt four inches in .engJh, two in wiG,h aad one in thick ness. It ordinarily Wn ms iii taa adult male about five ounces, out is somewhat lighter in the female. X small organ ? you say. But understand, tne body Oi the average size m1n contains abou. 'eH quarts q tlgsd af ah.cb erery drop passes lhropJh Hs #4e33 or SsweTs, af they may be eail"l lgDry lines c dgg, as often as th, heat, InakiDg0 complete revolution in tbiee ni,UU'ca. From tho blood they separate the waste material, working away steadily ni1ht and day, sleeping or waking, tiraless gs the heart itselt, and fully cl ae nUcb importance r'moving impurities rom siXty-iiye gal- ioas of blood eGei '5 or about forty nine barrels each a or 9,l25 hogs heads year! Wba. wonder tbat the kidneys can last aa- 0u-th of time under this prodigioU ..n, treated and neglected as they arc
 We slice this dairat8 organ open lengthwiso with our Eul I, and will rough ly describe it's interior
 We find it to be geddish-brown color. so,t and eailg 2ln, filed with hundreds of littlo tunes. short and thTead-iike, starting from the arteries, ending in liL,!e tuf bu., midway from the outside oDeDin g. cavity of con- siderable size, whichi' catod the pelyis, or, roughly speaEia- ac2,. which is for the pulpose of hQ,dn. the water to further undergo purOhu ijou before it passes down from here nlo t.4e ure.ers, and so on to the outside of the body. These little tubes are the filters which do their work automatically, and Tigdt here i8 acheIs tbc disedse QJ alc' Kidney first begins.
 Doing the vast amount of work which they are obliged to, from inc slightest irregUlarity in our La5i,a, from cold, from high living, from arimulauts or 8 thousand and enc other causes which occur every day, they become somewhat weakened in their nerve force.
 What is the result? Congestion or gt ct 4ifa tf l',,l in, 4lo small blood vessels surrounding them, membranes are irrl.ated; inflammation is set up, then pus is formed, which col lects in the pelvis or sac; the tubes are at first partially, and soon are totally, unable to do their work. Tie pelvic sac goes on distending With this cOrrup- ton, pressing upon the blood vessels. All this time, remember, the blood, which is entering the kidneys 10 be fil- tered, is passing through ibis terrible, dis gastjHg puS, fer it cannot take any other route
 Stop and think of it for @ moment. Do you realize the importance, nay the vital necessity, of having the kidneys in order? Can you expect when they are diseased or obstructed, no matter how little, that you caa have piiG Jl30d and escape diseasel It would be jus, as req sonub!a to eNpcct, if pGsthousa were set across Broadway and countless thou- sands were Comge led 10 90 through its presidential dcurs and escape from coDta- zion and disease, as for one to expect the blood to escape pollution when con- stantly running through a diseased kid ney.
 Now, what is the result? Why, taat the blood takes up end deposits this poison as it sweeps along into every organ, into every iLcA of muscle, tissue, flesh and bone, from your head to your feet And whenever from hereditary influence or OjAewisc, some part of the body is weaker iLaB another, a countless irai. Of diseases is established, such as consumption iu weak lungs, dyspepsia, where there i3 8 delicate stomach neryousu uess, insanity, para ysis or heart disease in those who have weak nerves.
 The heart must Sg0aJ JesJ He C ec's Of fbs poj50a, CS it rCqUsfeS PU.C blood 10 kegpI ta ,ight action. Y increases it's stroke il and force to comp pensata for the naiura, stimulus wanting, in it's en- deayOr 10 crowd the impure blood through theis obstruction, causing pain, or an oUt-Ci-breGtl feeling. Unnatural as this forced labor is, the heart must soon iailer, becoming weaker and weaker until one day it suG5eag stopS, and death from apparent hear | disease" is the verdict. 2 |
 But the medical profession, learned | and digniiied, calithgaa diseases byhigh | sounding names, neat them alone, and patients die, for tbs Gr'cTes are cU,g1Guc | )tow dcdtb 10 Ue C sc,sa paris, conatantiv | adding incl hEuusitirOu these suppurat- | ng, pus-iadcn kidneys which here in our Tash-bow! are very pUgeiaction itself, md which should have been cured first.
 But this ig nOt all the kidneys have to 10; for you must remember tbat each ldult takes about seven pounds of every tWcutv-foUr hours to .upply the waste of the body which is constantly going on, waste equal to he quantity taken. This. too, the ildneNs have to separate rom the blood with all other decomposiDg matter.
 But you say, "lLy kidneys are all fight. l have no pain in the back" .Iistaken man. People die of kidney Iisease of so bad a character that the Igaua are rotten, and yet they have eUCr Here had e FGat O, on ache.
 Why? Because the disease begins. s we have shown in he interior of the idneys, where ttse ere .tes0 asTCea oJ 'eijng to convey the sensation ol pain. Why this is so we may never know.
 When you consider their great work,
